Ideas for Easter morning breakfast
Sweet. Savory. Or both? I’ve been flipping through cookbooks and clicking through some of my favorite blogs to figure out what I want to do for Easter morning breakfast.
Here are a few ideas I’ve been thinking about from MKES and some of my favorite blogs.
Savory
Mini-quiches. I let my kids decide what they want to put inside. Best part? They can be made ahead.
Baked apple french toast. There’s a light version of this one! From Words to Eat By
Yeasted waffles from MKES
Sweet
Baked donuts from Martha and Me
New York style coffee cake from Fake Ginger
Banana sour cream muffins from Cafe Johnsonia
Nutella cinnamon rolls from MKES
Yeah, notice my sweet list is a little longer than my savory:) I’ve also been toying with an idea my husband keeps talking about–breakfast pizza. Follow me–pizza crust, fresh salsa instead of red sauce, breakfast sausage, scrambled eggs, cheese on top? (Maybe even a few roasted potatoes)
I still haven’t decided, anyone else making something tasty for Easter?

How about all of the above? But only if I can come to your house for the feast. They all sound fantastic.
We’re actually going to the Holiday Inn for their Easter Brunch after church. Doesn’t that sound like an old-fashioned Midwestern thing to do…?

Easter Brunch doesn’t sound old-fashioned, that just sounds like fun to me. Enjoy.

We haven’t decided yet but my MIL will be in town and she’s an awesome chef. I’m sure we’ll whip up something interesting! (Easter’s not really my holiday. We are a mixed family. But I’m trying to muster some enthusiasm for it…)

Well, it’s a great excuse to cook up something fun, if nothing else, right?

Recent converts to baked French toast. Hard to resist. Nice that it’s a prep the night before, cook the morning of kind of deal too.

I ended up skipping a big breakfast in favor of a nice, big dinner–chicken parmesan. So good. We even ate the leftovers the next day for dinner too (no complaints on that!)
